I think I forgot how to smile, how to speak and communicate like a normal person.
That face caught me off guard.
I forgot how to make eye contact, but then again, I was never good at that anyway.
I think I forgot that kind of energy existed, it’s been so long.
Kind and gentle. Troubled , but with a heart of gold.
I can’t tell you the last time I felt excitement to look at someone’s smile.
To feel seen and remembered by name. Though I’m sure it’s part of your job.
It’s the craziest thing, but it opened my eyes, I see a bigger picture, a different future in my once fleeting day dreams
And though you don’t know me, and I don’t know you,
You changed my perspective of my little world, gave me a brighter point of view, with just the simple “Hi, how are you?”

I like that. Sometimes a little thing like that can make all the difference.

I do t know ow if there is a hidden message behind this piece. But if it is, I really hope it a positive one!
But a genuine “how are you” (when they don’t expect the standard answer) is really powerful and comforting.
P.s. I have finally managed to purchase your ebook. It is always a bit of a struggle with Amazon because there is no danish account. But I managed 😄 I shall read it soon and leave a review!
